PROPERTY TAXES
a. PROPERTY TAX PAYMENTS & DISCOUNTS 2010: I tried to pay my
property taxes online today at
www.eloscabos.com by entering my Clave #. My taxes showed
Zero Due and would not allow me to pay early and take the 30% +/-
discount. Last year in February I paid by credit card from
California on line. It was quick and easy. I would like to pay now
but the system wont let me pay a zero balance. Is it because they
are due January 1, 2010 and you cant pay online until then? Please
advise how I might pay online today and take advantage of the 30%
property tax discount. Or advise if I have to pay cash in person to
get the discount. My house is in Buena Vista. Thanks for your help.

c. I have received several emails and I think the bottom line is if
you pay in La Paz by 11/30 you will receive a 33%to35% discount. If
you pay in Los Barriles you receive a 30%to33% discount. Experts,
correct me if I'm wrong. Cheryl

Would someone like to share our Los Barriles PO Box? Half of the
yearly fee would be N$143 pesos.

I read a comment on another website that when driving into Baja that
if you don't get your tourist visa at the border that you could be
paying an additional $50 fine. In the past, we've always gotten our
stamp at the Guerrero Negro check station, and then paid it at a
bank in Constitucion. Any advice? And if we do have to get it in
Tijuana, where do you suggest? I really dislike stopping anywhere in
Tijuana.

Thanks to Luis Camarena and his daughter Crystal Antares for a
lovely evening of star gazing. In spite of the clouds, through
Luis's telescope, we were able to view Jupiter and see three of its
moons. Our moon was just right for good shadow contrast and we could
see lots and lots of surface detail. And we learned many new things
about the night sky. Do you know how to identify Cassiopeia? Luis
sent me the night sky calendar for December. Looks like there will
be some meteor showers that you can see without a telescope. Email
me if you would like a copy of the calendar. Luis will keep me
posted on night sky events that will warrant another star gazing
gathering in January.

NON-PROFITS AND COMMUNITY SERVICE
a. The Rotary Diabetes Screening held after the parade last Friday
was a smashing success. Over 100 of our local community members
stopped by the diabetes screening tent to have their glucose tested
along with their blood pressure! Many many thanks go to Rotarians
Char Wenger and Barbara Fowler who co-chaired the Rotary event. A
special thanks go to the workers from East Cape Community Urgent
Care Clinic for their help as well as to fellow Rotarians Sherri
King, Bob Ottis, Steve Fowler and Mary Hathaway. Rotary gathered
important data in which to apply for a grant from Rotary
International to carry on this important project. Over 500 pieces of
educational material was also given to our community.

AIRPORT
a. I need a ride from the airport to my home in Spa on Dec. 3rd
anytime after 1:45PM. I'll have a guest with me, so there'll be the
two of us and our carryon bags. If necessary we can put my guest on
your roof rack to save space. Happy to pay for gas, sodas, etc. John

RESTAURANT NEWS
a. First of all on behalf of Carmen's kitchen and myself we would
like to wish you a very happy Thanksgiving day this coming Thursday.
And because usually after a big celebration almost nobody is in the
mood of cooking.
Carmen has in mind to offer a Friday brunch instead of the regular
Saturday buffet.
So if you are not in the mood of cooking and still need to take care
of your RECUPERATION after a big Fiesta. Call Carmen's Kitchen for
your reservation at her After Thanksgiving Brunch on Friday starting
at 10:00 A.M. and until 2:00 P.M. with great dishes proper of an
after celebration meal.
Remember that sitting space is limited so do not forget to make your
reservations at 1300021.
For those of you that still do not know where is Carmen's Kitchen it
is on Blv Elektra at the end of the paved street on the old way to
Rancho Leonero. right next to San Sil hardware store.
Once again happy Thanksgiving, and looking forward to see you on
